Problems on the Road
are some things you should know.
Positive
(+) will go to positive (+)
and negative (-) will go to negative
(-) or a metal engine part. Don’t
connect
(+) to (-) or you’ll get a
short that would damage the battery
and maybe other parts, too.
160
Your Oldsmobile has a remote positive
(+) jump starting terminal. The
terminal
is in the red box on the same
side of the engine compartment as your
battery.
You should always use the
remote positive
(+) terminal instead of
the positive (+) terminal on your
batte
ry.
To open the remote positive (+)
terminal box, pull the tab and open the
cover.
5. Check that the jumper cables don’t
have loose
or missing insulation. If
they do, you could get
a shock. The
vehicles could be damaged, too.
Before you connect the cables, here
